For fun, adventure and a chance to learn on the natural world, why not take your kids to an animal zoo? An animal zoo is a collection of animals from all over the world, often including rare or endangered species, gathered in one place for people to observe. Zoos have been around since biblical times and the first zoological garden to open in New Zealand was the Wellington Zoo which opened in 1906

If your kids need a bit of soothing without running the risk of boredom setting in, why not take them to the local aquarium? An aquarium is a transparent container filled with water which contains fish or other marine life for people to observe. Most public aquariums have a number of different tanks which house a wide range of species of fish and aquatic plants.

Do your children love animals? Then why not take them to a petting zoo? A petting zoo is a collection of domestic and farm animals that kids can feed and stroke. Sometimes they are located at zoos and other times they are mobile, often travelling to locations for parties or to schools, fetes, showgrounds and other events where fun activities for kids are required.

Are you in search of a kids' activity that will promote your child's mental, social, and physical development? How about the Scouts? The first Boy Scouts organisation was founded in England as a way to teach boys survival skills, hard work, and comradeship. The first New Zealand Boy Scout camp was started in 1908, and Scouts New Zealand is now a national movement and community institution, which provides a wide range of camps and activities for children of all ages.
